What Does It Mean To Submit To Your Husband by kkins25(m): 1:47pm On Dec 22, 2023
I've been thinking about this alot, and can't seem to understand what "submission" means.

What does it mean for a wife to submit to me? Also, can women provide what "to submit" means to them?

Is submitting to a man similar to submitting to God in the sense that man has the last and final say? Does this mean, the man's will should supersede that of the woman? Does submitting mean, taking care of? Please, explain it to me like I'm a dumb 5 year old.

*Explanation *
Submission is next to how the rich and powerful person[s] is[are] treating the poor and weak person[s].

One person stands tall, confident and energetic. The other is gutsy, succulent and beautiful.

From these stereotypes, who should be the Dom or Sub?

Answer this question like someone from space, devoid of any knowledge of traditional or modern sexual relationships.

As a woman, you are not a fool. But submission here means to respect him as the head and obey him. It is not everything he says that you may take, but you can disagree respectfully. You are not to disagree or drag with him on simple matters that needs no debate.

It means to cook for him always and make sure cooked food is available. And the husband must be tolerant in his demand for kinds of food... You can't just keep saying to your wife " I want fresh food, I cannot eat food in the freezer, I cannot eat food cooked yesterday".. You need to be tolerant.

It means not submitting your destiny and life to a foolish husband. You cannot submit your life to a lazy gambler or an irresponsible man, all in the name of submission. You can respect, but do not submit foolishly.

You cannot submit to a violent man that wants to take your life all in the name of submission. You can submit to such persons from afar without coming closer.

Simply means serve your husband.

You're a subject of your husband who's the ruler of your home.

In Old Testament those females who go against this rule either in Bible or Quran definitely gets stoned down with rocks... No Jokes

Respect him. Obey him when it's in line with God's word/will. However men should not use this command of God to enslave their wife's or turn her to errand girl otherwise war go dey.

Are you male or female?

Are you a feminist?

What is your understanding of submission with respect to husband and wife?

Work together as a couple but if there is a conflict on a decision and he feels strongly about it without shifting then you defer to him.

How you see this is up to you and how you ensure that he sees reason if your position seems to be the best choice is also up to you. You have been empowered with many natural skills as a woman to help him see reason and if he still says no then you defer.

If you can't do that then maybe marriage is simply not for you. You are better off by yourself and you won't have to submit to anybody. Marriage is not by fire by force contrary to the mindset of many of our people who can't think for themselves.

Some men don't deserve respect, respect is one of the key factor of submission, the way you talk Will determine how the other one reacts... entitlement mentality of men in Nigeria and na me own you nahim make marriage dey spoil most times, you don't expect to undervalue your wife and then expect her to be submissive.

In my understanding, it is acknowledging him as the head of the home, respecting him, and voicing your concerns in a respectful manner whenever you have to.

In that case, separation or full divorce is the best option. They should stop deceiving each other that they are married. Simple grin

Wives only get stone for not being virgins and infidelity in the bible. Pls next time, quote only what you are familiar with.
Re: What Does It Mean To Submit To Your Husband by VULCAN(m): 3:13pm On Dec 22, 2023
To make is easy for you to understand.

Submission is what a woman does when she wants to go on leave in her office.

She picks a date and informs her boss.

The boss okays it or rejects it.

Sometimes he okays it and at the last minute rejects it because of an emergency.

In all of this, that woman submits to her boss.

She accepts that his will can prevail over her own.

But when she married she does not want to extend the same courtesy to her husband.

Is that not evil?

Note: The boss doesn't have to be right, yet the woman will submit to him.

Any woman who will not submit to you in relationship is automatically disqualified from becoming your wife.

Let her marry her boss who she willingly submits to

wetin pastor do to deserve the submission that a husband doesnt deserve.
BRATISLAVA:


They can submit to their female bosses at work but will claim superiority and headship with wife at home. What did the female boss do to deserve the submission that a wife doesn't deserve?
it is a good thinking to compare your boss at work to your pastor in the church nah,see reasoning.when you get laid off for insurbodination at work,your pastor will feed your family and pay your children's school fees.mtchew...maximum respect for all men that go through thick and thin to make sure the family never lack.
Its so good to serve your husband with a disposable plate and serve your pastor with the best dish in the house.
